Torino
The Ford Torino was produced by the Ford motor company from 1968 to 1976. The Torino was created to eventually replace the very popular Fairlane name with an all new brand of Ford beauty, power and style. Although Ford still used the Fairlane name up through 1971, the Torino name was used on most body styles.

This car was purchased new by my father in the fall of 1970 from Bishop-Hansel Ford in Santa Rosa, California. The delivered price was $5001.75. I acquired it in June of 2006 and I am in the process of restoring it.
